Showgirls’ actress Elizabeth Berkley is writing a self-help book to help teens with low self-esteem that was inspired by questions she has received from young girls on her website Ask-Elizabeth.com where they write in and ask for advice.

Elizabeth received tons of criticism for her portrayal as a showgirl back in 1995 and a year later worked with Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler and Diane Keaton in First Wives Club which, at the time said Goldie took her under her wing:

Goldie especially took me under her wing and was really supportive. She told me, “I don’t like the way you were directed in that movie [Showgirls (1995)], but there’s something there that you can’t deny. So you just keep doing what you’re doing and someone will get it, and someone will show the real you, and not just some idea of you”.

Pay it forward.  This November 1 marks her 7th year wedding anniversary to Greg Lauren, a professional nude painter who also happens to be the nephew of fashion guru Ralph Lauren.

And if you look closely, you’ll see that Elizabeth has two different colour eyes.  Cool, right?
